Question 1 of 5
During a review of back injuries, a unit manager discovers a large number of injuries are occurring even though mechanical lifts are being used. It is also discovered that some of the mechanical lifts are outdated. In establishing a quality improvement plan, the unit manager should:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Review the correct procedure with staff members who use the mechanical lifts incorrectly. This answer is correct because it directly addresses the root cause of the issue, which is the incorrect use of mechanical lifts leading to back injuries. By reviewing the correct procedure with staff members, the unit manager can ensure that employees are properly trained and following safety protocols.
Choice A is incorrect because filing a grievance does not directly address the issue of incorrect mechanical lift usage.
Choice B is incorrect as it places blame on the employees rather than addressing the systemic issue.
Choice C is incorrect as blindly adopting procedures from other hospitals may not be effective without understanding the specific needs of the unit.
In summary, the best course of action is to educate and train staff on the correct procedures to prevent further back injuries related to mechanical lift usage.
